Josiane and Mesmin and married in October 1961.They were respectively 12 and 18 years old when they met for the first time.But even if Mesmin was already in love with her beautiful, he waited until she celebrates her 18th birthday to marry her.By gallant man, he had made the promise to Josianne and he kept his word.
At the time, it was Josiane's grandmother who accompanied them to the church to seal this union and this beautiful love story that still lasts sixty years later.
In order to celebrate their diamond wedding, which falls into the Somen Kreol, the small dishes were put in the big ones.The bride has put on a beautiful white dress and a crown of flowers adorned her hair.Mesmin was not outdone in his beautiful black suit.
And as in 1961, the renewal of their wishes was celebrated by the councilor of Saint-Paul, in the presence of their loved ones, and to the sound of a copper orchestra which assured the atmosphere.
A procession accompanied the whole Hoareau family to the Gran Kour house, the site where a vilaz longan is held this October 30.On site, there is a salvèrt but also an exhibition of longan objects and traditional music concerts.
Today, surrounded by 3 children, 6 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren, the Hoareau couple, in love as on the first day, celebrated their sixty years of conjugal life in a salvèrt made as in theTan Lontan.Without forgetting the Rogaton that will take place tomorrow.

And as the diamond is not only the best friend of women, but especially the strongest stone in the world, no doubt that the Hoareau couple still has very beautiful years of love to share, perhaps to celebrate theirPlatinum wedding (70 years), those of Alabaster (75 years old) and why not their oak wedding (80 years old).
